The Asantehene explained that some of the information which had been going around was without his knowledge and that such misinformation should stop since it's does not urge well.

Otumfuo Osei Tutu II advised Nana Attakora Amaniampong that he should be humble, honest and go back to the orginal mainstream of Asanteman Association which is Nana Tieku Acheampong's camp.

"I'm urging you all to bury your differences and let the spirit of Asanteman guide you, seek the interest of each other and let transparency be your paramount concern”. Otumfuo Osei Tutu II directed these advice to Nana Anane Amponsah, an ex-Asantefuohene of New York, Nana Tieku Acheampong, an ex-Asantefuohene of New York, Nana Attakora Amaniapong the "an aspiring Asantefuohene of New York", Mr. Kwaku Agyeman Duah, the executive secretary of ACONA, Nana Akua Sefa, an ex-Asantefuohemaa of New York, Busumuru Fordjour, the ex-Kontihene, Nana Yaa Asantewaa, the Queenmother of Ejisu Traditional area and some staunch members of Asanteman Association in New York.
